The Big Switch

A Wall Street Journal bestseller, Nicholas Carr’s The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google is a “riveting” and “magisterial” examination of how a revolution in computing – the cloud – is reshaping business, society, and culture.

From the software business to the newspaper business, from job creation to community formation, from cyberwar to privacy, The Big Switch offers a panoramic view of the new world being conjured from the circuits of the “World Wide Computer.” It’s “the best read so far about the significance of the shift to cloud computing,” says the Financial Times.
